Disturbing Ads: Snow White in Bed with the Dwarves?!
An Australian beer ad has taken some creative license on a classic fairy tale by depicting a sexed-up--and inebriated--Snow White in the sack with all seven dwarves. She's smoking a (post-coital? ew) cigarette while the dwarves display their respective emotions. The company calls it "Ho White and the Seven Dwarves" and renames Sleepy, Happy and Doc to Filthy, Smarmy and Randy.
What does this have to do with liquor? The tagline for the beer is "anything but sweet," and I guess this fits the bill. But still...did anyone really want this image seared into their brains? What if kids see it?
Although Disney doesn't own exclusive rights to the original fairy tale, of course, the beer company has reportedly been reprimanded from Disney for the ad.
What do you think of this ad? Is it funny or inappropriate?

LOL.
Quite disturbing but funny as well.
Well, this just proves that everything from Disney ends up trashy.
Err..... wow. Kinda inappropriate. Definitely creepy.
I don't like it but I see where they were going with it. As long as the ad is used in places where only adults can see it (magazines, liquor stores, etc...) then I see no problem with it. If they start using it on billboards or bus stops then that would be inappropriate.
Haha.
i just think people should be more careful with things like that, if i was a kid and saw that i will think, eh?, what they doing?, is that what they do when they are alone?, they do that and its not in the movie?, why? o.O
i mean people just have to be careful
EWWW
GROSS.
i liked snow white too D:
uh gross.
xo
WTFUGLY.
it's pretty funny
kids live in the real world and the original fairy tales were way worse then this! (i read all the originals before 10 LOL)
HORRIBLE!
If the product is for adults, why do companies use CARTOONS?! This is just a cheap ploy for publicity.
hahah thats great.... kinda creepy but it does not offend me. I might be offended if it was playing on the Disney channel or something though...
MY CHILDHOOD! >.<
gross but at the same time i'm pissing myself laughing!
people really need to relax, loosen up, and take a joke instead of being all serious about it! :Dit's what you'll get with beer and any other adult ad. :\
I get the joke, I just don't think it's very funny.
my comment has nothing to do with this blog sorry but i figure since this is lovelyish i'd ask and maybe someone can comment back.
just got my hair dyed and it came out a lot darker than i wanted. looks 2 shades from black when i wanted a medium brown. is there anything i can do to lighten it that doesn't involve bleaching it? ahh.
In no way funny and completely inappropriate. Beer ads are so bad....I'm debating not drinking beer anymore (not that I drink lots, but you know) because the ads really make me sick. If you guys wanna see a really bad one....go to youtube and search "guiness ad"...its the first one.
i think it's kinda stupid. not that funny, not that bad. who cares??
I always knew that was going on anyway, the picture just proves it to me.
lol.
...wow </3
Q__Q
she has bad taste in men. beer goggles will ruin her life and anyone who choose to get that drunk Lol
its kinda funny a tiny bit, but dosen't fit the ad.
